This is the sound and dance of Mexico.
Veracruz: Veracruz was once used as an important trade port by the SPanish and the Veracruz style of dance was clearly heavily inspired by Flamenco. The fast footwork relies very heavily upon the music, much more so than other Mexican styles and it is not uncommon to have Veracruz performed "acapella". The women wear imported white lace dresses, their hair up in a bun with a comb, an embroidered apron, rebozos (shawls) holding fans and occasionally wearing a candle on their head. The most famous song is "La Bamba" where a couple must successfully tie a rebozo into a bow to prove their strong union as a couple.
